Question 456049: A small airplane flies at 145 miles per hour in still air. It took 2.5 hours for the airplane to fly D miles against a headwind blowing toward the airplane at W miles per hour. Which of the following equations can be used to represent this informmation?
A) D= (W-2.5)145
B) D=(145-w)2.5
C) 145=(w-2.5)D
D) 145=(D-w)2.5
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A small airplane flies at 145 miles per hour in still air.
It took 2.5 hours for the airplane to fly D miles against a headwind blowing toward the airplane at W miles per hour.
----
distance = rate*time
D = (145-w)2.5
